Non-Weighted Nymphs/ Emergers

The original pattern tied with egg yarn.

Will Sand’s lifelike Mysis Shrimp developed by one of the top guides on the Frying Pan. One of our favs.

The original Gary LaFontaine sparkle pupa. It creates a bubble of air within the body that makes it look like the real deal to the fish. MUST HAVE

Another versitle pattern from John Barr. Fish it alone on the swing or behind and adult caddis in the film. You can even run it on a double nymph rig.

John Barrs original “Barr’s Emerger” is one of the best BWO nymph/emergers ever designed. It’s simplicity, as in all of John’s patterns, makes it work. A must have folks.

The CDC Loop Wing is designed to fish in the film when picky trout are not taking adults. Fish as a dry fly.

Shea Gunkels amazing shallow water nymph with a glass bead. This is an extremely hard to beat pattern when fish are being picky and picking up bugs mid water column and up.

The little DEMON midge. Hell of a fly

A very good dragon fly nymph pattern by Phillip Rowley. Use this nymph for stillwater success!

A simple and effective little shrimp pattern.

Simple emerger pattern with foam post to keep it riding up in the water column.

“After spending my time guiding in Montana and central Wyoming, I set out to tie a versatile midge pattern by blending a few of my favorite patters.

I quickly came to realize that though I was aiming for a midge pattern, it fished better as a BWO.
